Even after this long run, the time indicated by the shiny gold watch on his wrist was only less than half an hour.

What appeared before my eyes was a slightly lonely small courtyard, which was particularly inconspicuous compared with those magnificent three-in-one courtyards. Obviously, such a residence was more suitable for a family of three to live a plain and peaceful life.

From the outside, the small courtyard seems a bit dilapidated due to the erosion of time. If a thief passes by, he probably won’t even take a second look at it, let alone target it.

However, when Yang Ming stepped into this seemingly ordinary courtyard, he easily found the place where the three people hid their belongings based on his memory.

There, a package, carefully wrapped in oilcloth, lay quietly in the corner.

When the oilcloth was lifted, more than twenty glittering yellow croakers, stacks of heavy silver dollars, three magazines, and two heavy hunting rifles were revealed. In addition, there were two exquisite agate bracelets and a ring.

As far as Yang Ming knew, these agate bracelets and rings were the spoils of their last robbery.

Originally, they planned to leave Beijing after completing their last business, but fate played a cruel joke on them.

"It seems that one should be cautious when making an oath." Yang Ming silently prayed for the three people in his heart for a few seconds. Their fate was so tragic that not only did they lose their lives, but even their bodies were not left behind. They all became part of Yang Ming's personal space.

Time flies, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Yang Ming discovered that he seemed to have really acquired the ability of a master of time management recently.

Not only did he have to accompany Chen Xueru, who was about to become his wife, but he also had to find time to help the tavern's owner Xu Huizhen with her homework. He almost wanted to split himself in two to cope with this busy pace of life.

Of course, he knew how important it was to maintain a delicate balance between the two women. Otherwise, with Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen's competitive personalities, there would probably be no peace at home.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming couldn't help but feel fortunate that his physical fitness had been greatly improved after his breakthrough in martial arts.

Otherwise, even if he had a body of iron, he would probably not be able to endure such fatigue.

"Xiao Ming," Chen Xueru came to Yang Ming with a house deed in her hand, smiling happily, and showed it to him as if showing off a treasure.

"Look, what is this?" she asked.

"House deed?" Yang Ming reacted quickly, "Did you successfully take over the compound of the spy?"

He calculated the days and found that half a month had passed since he discovered the spy, and the inspection of the courtyard should have been completed.

"That's right," Chen Xueru nodded, a proud smile on her face, "This is all thanks to you. Captain Yang knows that we have a close relationship, so he sent someone to tell me to bring the money to go through the transfer procedures. If it weren't for your relationship, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy for us to get this yard."

As she spoke, she snuggled up to Yang Ming, enjoying this rare warm moment.

"Xiao Ming, I am so lucky to meet you."

"I feel the same way, as if it is a blessing from my past life."

Yang Ming looked into the tender eyes of the beauty in front of him and responded without hesitation.

Their eyes intertwined, Chen Xueru gently lifted the hem of her cheongsam and slightly opened her red lips.

"Xiao Ming, look."

"This is a little surprise I prepared specially for you."

"Didn't you say before that you liked the way I looked in stockings? I specially asked someone to buy them for me. What do you think?" Seeing this scene, Yang Ming's eyes suddenly widened and he felt a sense of emotion in his heart.

Unlike Xu Huizhen, Chen Xueru is a beauty who knows men's minds very well.

Just like the pair of stockings she was wearing now, Yang Ming just mentioned it casually, but she kept it in mind and even asked someone to buy them for her.

"Xueru."

Yang Ming's heart moved, and he stretched out his arms without hesitation, holding Chen Xueru in his arms, and walked towards the bedroom amid her exclamations.

afterwards.

Looking at the torn stockings scattered on the bedroom floor, Yang Ming couldn't help but shook his head and muttered to himself.

"Xue Ru, the quality of your stockings... doesn't seem to be very durable."

"Pooh."

Chen Xueru heard this and gave Yang Ming a charming look, secretly criticizing him in her heart. These stockings are meant to be worn, why would you mess with them like this?

If you do this, not only ordinary stockings, but even my precious cheongsams can't stand such a torment!

"You, are really taking advantage of me." Chen Xueru said coquettishly.

"I originally wanted you to accompany me to see the yard and discuss how to arrange it. But you..."

“Hey, it’s not too late to go now.” Yang Ming said with a flattering smile.

"Okay Xueru, let me help you organize your clothes."

However, Chen Xueru's face changed when she heard this. She rejected Yang Ming's kindness without any hesitation and asked him to leave the bedroom.

She has experience as a lesson.

If she really let Yang Ming help her change her clothes, she probably wouldn't be able to leave this room today!

Even so, it was already an hour later when the two men appeared in the small courtyard that originally belonged to the enemy spies and was connected to the backyard of Chen's Silk Shop.

This time, Chen Xueru took out the key, unlocked the door, pushed the door open and walked in.

"Not bad."

“Although the place is a bit small, it is quite suitable to convert it into a dyeing workshop.” Chen Xueru turned to look at Yang Ming and said in a negotiating tone.

"I think..."

Hearing this, Yang Ming fell into deep thought.

"I heard from someone that the tavern's business is booming now, and it's all thanks to someone."

"Xiao Ming, you won't be partial to one, right?"

Chen Xueru next to her seemed to have thought of something and asked with a smile.

""...

Yang Ming smiled bitterly. He didn't expect Xu Huizhen to tell Chen Xueru even such a thing.

However, after careful consideration, Yang Ming realized that the relationship between them had already surpassed the boundaries of ordinary best friends.

Even the man they admired in their hearts was the same person.

This slightly competitive interaction has become a daily habit for them.

It is not easy to have the love of two people at the same time. Moreover, Yang Ming is still far from the true state of having both.

"Xue Ru, I have thought deeply about your silk shop. In fact, there are not many places that need to be changed. You have run it quite well." Yang Ming changed the subject and continued, "But when it comes to suggestions, I still have some."

From ancient times to the present, people have always loved to hear words of praise, this is an unchanging truth.

What Chen Xueru was most proud of was that she managed the silk shop in an orderly manner. She was especially happy to hear the praise from her crush.

"Xiao Ming, please continue." She looked at me expectantly.

Yang Ming nodded and continued to elaborate on his opinion: "I think the front desk of the silk shop can be slightly adjusted 513, the ready-made clothes and fabrics can be placed separately, and a few wooden hangers can be added, so that customers can appreciate the effect of the ready-made clothes more intuitively, thus stimulating their desire to buy."

After a pause, he continued to add his idea: "In addition, the overall layout of the silk shop can also be adjusted. The rooms inside can be used to divide into several small fitting rooms to facilitate customers to try on clothes."
